Vase
A small baluster vase of white opaque glass with polychrome enamel in the Chinoiserie manner. On one side two figures stand in a garden setting, one in a red robe holding a long stick and the other in a blue coat, while a small pink bird perches nearby. Puce and green scrollwork frames the scene.
Look closer: A small pink bird perches on a green mound at the right of the scene.
